Frequently asked questions

Is this ATS resume checker really free?

Yes — completely free, no signup, no account and no upsell. Other checkers advertise free then charge $9–$29 to see the fixes; here the score and every check are shown in full.

What does ATS mean?

ATS stands for Applicant Tracking System — the software employers use to scan resumes before a human reads them. It looks for keywords, sections and clean formatting, and rejects resumes it cannot read.

Is the score the same as a real employer's ATS?

No, and no free tool can promise that — every employer's ATS is configured differently. This score is an honest rule-based estimate of the same 9 things most ATS tools check, so a high score here means a readable, keyword-rich resume.

Should I paste my resume as plain text?

Yes. Copy the text out of your Word or PDF resume and paste it here. Fancy tables, graphics and text boxes confuse real ATS software too — plain, clean text is what gets read.
